What schedule_delete does on Semaphore

AI agents call schedule_delete to permanently remove resources in Semaphore — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

Why schedule_delete needs a policy

Deleting a schedule is an irreversible action. Once removed, the schedule configuration is lost and any automated tasks tied to it will no longer run. This could disrupt automation workflows for Ansible, Terraform, and other automation pipelines managed through Semaphore, making it high severity.

From the tool's definition 'Delete a schedule' - explicitly removes a schedule permanently
